    Said simpler for you idiots ...

    We have basically a very green sales staff and we’re sending them out to compete against the best of the best sales teams

    Hammer meet nail.

    Outside Huff, Malloe, Adams (all of whom whould be just jags on the best recruiting coaching staffs) if your another top team on the West Coast, you love love love love your chances of beating any of the rest of our coaches on staff out on the road and imo it isn't especially hard to do so.

    Lake must have wanted to jump into the bleach river when he heard his new OC basically come out and tell the world the thing he missed the least about CFB was recruiting. It's only the most important part of the job and if it's not good enough, ultimatley game over before you ever get off the bus.
    The problem with this is that there is really no excuse for Lake in this ... this should have been part of his vetting process. So either 1) he didn’t ask, 2) Donovan lied to him, or 3) Lake didn’t have any other options
    And for what we are paying Donovan, there were plenty of other options, so that one comes off the board.

    We all know JL is a very good/great recruiter with his results as DB coach, and I trust him to be the closer on a kid as HC, but that only works if the Asst. Coach recruiting him has got him close to the finish line. i.e the kid has to see himself coming here 80% of the way. If the potential recruit is only 60% in the boat when he gets to Lake he has no chance.

    And right now for 7 out of our 10 coaches, after they leave the house/on zoom the vibe from the parents and kids is "nice, fine, polite, thoughtful, etc". It's not wow, amazing, incredible, what a opportunity, etc.

    I thought Savell was the most important recruit in the history of the program. That his commitment would change everything. That in state recruits would all go to UW after him.
    ...
    LIPO. Not looking good but still.

    Cares he's an elite talent. We want that in the progrum.
    Literally no one has said we don’t want him in tgr program.

    There’s a huge gap between “most important recruit ever” overhype and “I don’t want that guy”.

    He was a very important recruit. We had to get him.

    There are many recruits more important.

    Lots of angsty TBSers who can't read a weather report and notice how awfully warm it is.

    Granted our coaching staff does appear to suck. But we? fall on our dicks every spring, yet put it all back together when it matters. LIPO.

    Especially you @backthepack, you wildly emotional adolescent. Nine months ago the football team was natty bound with Kevin Durant 2.0 ready to take us to the Final Four. Now apparently we're destined for the eternal misery of 6-6. Take a few bars of Xanax, or whatever you Gen Z'ers OD on these days, and chill the fuck out.

    thats what USC thought last year when they signed one of the shittiest classes in their program's history

    I like to deal in extremes it's what I like to do.
